A Week Of Parties

I have decided to make "A Week Of Parties" a new segment here on Party Starters, because of the fabulous response it had a couple of weeks ago. If you have party pictures you would like shared, please leave a comment with a link to your blog OR send me a message.  A few of these were to sent to me and a few I picked myself.

So without further ado...here are this week's parties

A must see, Stix N Pop's Elizabeth created a Fairy Tea Party for her daughter that is unbelievable! There are tons and tons of photos and LOTS of fabulous ideas! I was happy to send Elizabeth some of our Fairy Picks, which she used on her brownie bites with Strawberry frosting..yummy!

Pizzazzerie created a fun and funky Pink Halloween party table as seen on Sweet Designs by Amy Atlas.
Absolutely SpOOK-o-licious!

This delicious display is from The Sweet Spot. A wonderful Book lovers sweet table literally using pages right out of a book to decorate!

Oh so cute...this "Bay-Bee" shower can bee found over at Crafty Workin Mommy
A great theme for a gender neutral shower! Loving those cookies!

One more from Pizazzerie, I couldn't help myself...this one is absolutely precious!
A Vintage Shabby Chic 1st Birthday.

Have fun checking these out and of course have a fabulous weekend!

My Sweet Mini Cupcake Favor Box

Click on photo to enlarge

 YEAH its finally here, my newest creation...the PS Designs original "Mini Cupcake Favor Box! I have been dreaming about this box for a while now and have gone through several prototypes trying to get it just the right size. This box would make a wonderful favor for any party or shower! Give each guest two mini cupcakes in a pretty little box as they walk out the door and watch their eyes light up! Come on...who wouldn't want to take home two extra bites of cupcake goodness with them??? I can create these favor boxes in just about any color combination to go with your parties' color scheme. OR wait...how about holidays...black and orange for Halloween, Brown and Orange for Thanksgiving...of course red and green or blue and white for the winter holidays!! These would also make great treats for classroom parties or to give as a teacher's gift. Heck lets not stop there...how about a sweet surprise for a friend or loved one's birthday!

Each box comes with an insert in the bottom which holds two mini cupcakes in place. Nice and snug so they won't slip and slide while being passed around. Of course you wouldn't want to turn them upside down...they aren't completely flop proof.

For these boxes I chose Hawaiin Shores & Dark Chocolate colored cardstock. The sweet little thank you tag is compliments of Tweedle Dee Designs, which you can download free HERE. I attached the tag with some pure white tulle which was tied in a pretty bow, simple and oh so pretty! 

What color scheme would you choose and for what occasion would you use this favor box for?

Alice Alice Everywhere...

Seems as though the Alice in Wonderland party theme isn't losing its steam yet. I have been creating different Alice themed party decorations and favors since March of this year when the Tim Burton version came out on the big screen,  and the orders just keep coming in. I LOVE IT and not sure if I will tire of sweet little Alice and her friends!

Here are some photos I took a while back. I guess I got busy with the holiday, then the birthday bash and then completely forgot to post theses...silly silly me. The tags, cake slice boxes and cupcakes toppers were created back in late May for a client who was hosting a wedding shower. She requested favors and decorations to match my "Little Alice" tea cup cake topper, so off I went into the rabbit hole! 

I found the greatest prop shop... my Mom's basement...LOL. She had all of the antique tea cups and saucers. The vintage pocket watch is Al's passed down from his grandfather. I was a nervous wreck taking these photos, trying not to break anything! I am sure the items on the table were worth more then me..LOL It was a lot of fun though, felt like a little kid playing dress up, only I was dressing up a table with party supplies...mmm my favorite!

Can't get enough and want to see MORE fabulous Alice in Wonderland inspired parties...here ya go:

Inspiration for a Fairy Party

Take a lookie and tell me what ya think.

Thanks for stopping by today.

{New Products} Baby Boys, Lady Bugs, Princesses & Pirates

I was trying to figure out a tasty treat for today post, but the only thing I could come up with was Chocolate Covered Sunflower Seeds. I am hooked and have been eating on a bag all week...oh my are they yummy and OH SO colorful...love them! These would be great sprinkled on top of cupcakes or in a small clear favor box. These little gems are something that you simply don't want to hide in packaging,  they are so bright and playful!

Ok now that I have shared something tasty I wanted to share a couple of new products that will be hitting my Etsy shop next week. First up is my mini cake slice favor box, this time for a baby shower. I love custom orders, so any small sentiment, name or date I am happy to include on the tag for you.

Next my Lady Bug mini gable box, which are already in my store. Originally I had created these little boxes in pink, green and yellow, but I just had to add another version with the traditional ladybug colors of red and black! The boxes can also be customized to fit your needs. These are great for small snacks or a gift card.

Last, my Castle Invitation, this one was created for a Princess and Pirates party. Again I can customize this invite to just about any color scheme and theme that includes a castle. These invitations are an A7 which means it measures 5"x7". I am thrilled to say these invites were a hit with my 6 year old little friend, who is getting ready to turn 7! That alone makes my heart sing!!

Have any questions for me please feel free to hit my contact page on my website or leave me a comment here on the blog.

Off to eat more CCSS...yummy!
Hugs,
Pam
